The site - which pushes for Evans' conviction to be quashed - includes pixelated footage of his 19-year-old victim from the hotel in Rhyl, north Wales, where the rape took place.

It is understood her father made a complain which prompted the Attorney General to ask the Crown Prosecution Service to examine whether any laws had been broken over potentially identifying his victim - who has anonymity for life.

Ed Beltrami, the Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS Wales, said today there was insufficient evidence to charge anyone.

He said: "This case concerned the publishing of CCTV on the website chedevans.com and allegation that it could lead to the identification of a rape victim.

"Each case is considered on its own facts and merits. In order to undertake a prosecution, the law would require us to prove that it was 'likely' that a member of the public could identify the victim from the CCTV footage posted on the website."

He ruled that because the footage was pixelated and there was nothing else "sufficiently distinctive" in the footage it was unlikely a member of the public could identify the victim.

Mr Beltrami added: "Jigsaw identification was also considered; namely whether or not this CCTV, in conjunction with information about the victim that was already in the public domain, could lead to identification.

"It was decided that a member of the public would still be unlikely to identify the victim were they aware of both the CCTV and other information."

However he warned that the decision "does not imply any finding concerning guilt or criminal conduct".

Former Sheffield United and Wales star Evans, 26, was jailed for five years in 2012 and released last year.

He has always maintained his innocence and is fighting to take his case to appeal.

On Monday his legal team submitted two interviews to the Criminal Cases Review Commission - which were said to "further strengthen" his case.

Evans has been unable to resume his football career since his release due to public pressure.

His victim, who is entitled to lifelong anonymity over the attack, is said to have been forced into hiding and had to move home five times after being 'outed' by his supporters three years ago.

Nine people who tweeted the complainant's name shortly after Evans' conviction at Caernarfon Crown Court were all ordered to pay her compensation of £624.00 each.

In January Evans said: "Whilst I continue to maintain my innocence, I wish to make it clear that I wholeheartedly apologise for the effect that that night in Rhyl has had on many people, especially the woman concerned."
